Training Instructions
There are only mentally and physical competent workmen older than 18 years
with theoretical and practical skills qualified to operate the machine.
Other Ways of Use
The Machine cannot be used for any other purpose than transport of dry and wet
concrete mixes, fire-resistant mixes and similar materials. If used for any other
purpose, the manufacturer does not assume any liability for damages caused by or
to the Machine. It is not presumed that the equipment should be operated by any
unqualified operating staff and, therefore, the Operating and Maintenance
Instructions are compiled in a manner and to an extent inevitably necessary for a
safe operation of the Machine by a trained member of the staff.
IV. Description
The Machine comprises the following main parts:
-the Machine drive (electromotor, gearbox, speed variator, if any)
-basic frame
-dosing drum (rotor) with wearing plates
-the Machine head with upper sealing plate, lower sealing plate and exhauster,
-feeder and vibrator,
-rippling equipment,
-tightening bolts,
-exhauster with a filtration bag,
-air distribution and manometers,
-electrical installations,
-central lubricating system,
-bantam wheels (rail undercarriage, frame),
-accessories (hoses, quick couplers, nozzle, sealing plates, etc.)
The Machine drive is executed by the slipping gear (speed variator, if any) and
electrical motor.
The bearing part of the dosing, the Machine drive and air distribution are situated
on the frame. The bantam wheels are screwed on the basic frame sides.
The dozing drum is fixed on the top part of the bearing part shaft by a square(end)
and tightening nut.
The Machine head is installed on the hinged frame. The sealing plate is mounted
on its bottom side and its bottom side rests on the dozing drum. The air intake is
installed on the Machine head upper side as well as the feeder and exhaust with
the filtration bag.

The bottom sealing plate is fixed on the frame on which the dozing drum is rested
as well as the exhauster and bottom exhaust.
The Machine feeder is complimented by vibrator for acceleration of filling of the
transported mix, and a sifter.
The Machine head is mounted on by four tightening bolts serving to control
(adjust) thrust of the sealing plates to the dozing drum.
The exhausts with filtration bags serve to capture air remains and dusty particles
from the dozing drum cylinders.
The air distribution comprises the main intake and four controlling cocks. The
main intake is provided with a controlling cock and quick coupler for connection
of the pressured air DN 50 hose. The controlling cocks serve to intake air to the
Machine head (primary (upper) air), to the exhauster (secondary (bottom) air), to
clean the Machine and control the pneumatic vibrator. The controlling cocks for
the air intake to the head (primary (upper) air) and to the exhauster (secondary
(bottom) air) are equipped with manometers.
The central lubrication system comprises the lubricating equipment and tank,
controlling automatic system, outputs and pipe. The lubrication system transports
the lubricant (grease) or oil between the areas of sealing and wearing plates and so
avoids their excessive friction.
The control of the Machine is concentrated on the electric motor cover side. The
compressed air intake is situated on the cover side.
The whole Machine is alternatively placed on a solid frame, rail undercarriage or
bantam wheels.
Working Principle
The shotcreting machine SSB 02 works on the principle of pneumatic transport.
Dry-gunning
The dry mixture for spraying or transportation is poured in the machine and
smoothly fills the cylinders of the rotor below the hopper. To fill a mixture into
the rotor more easily, a vibrator and a rippling are fitted in the hopper.
The rotating movement of the rotor moves the mixture along by 180 degrees in
the clockwise direction. The mixture is thus blown out from individual cylinders
of the rotor into transport hoses. As the mix passes through the blower into the
transport hoses, lower pressure air is added to enhance the continuous flow of the
material in hoses. The hoses are equipped with the spraying nozzles at the end,
into which the mixing water is fed at the same time to wet the transported mixture.
The required wetting of the mixture is controlled with the supply cock.

Wet-gunning
When the concrete mixture is applied in so-called wet method, the hopper is filled
in with the prepared wet mix. In principle, the mix passes through the machine in
the same way as when spraying the dry mixture. A hose for addition of chemical
additives (e. g. accelerating admixture) is taken from the external dosing pump to
the spraying nozzle instead of mixing water.
Drive and Output Control
The Machine is propelled by electric motor.
I. Two-speed Electric Motor (DUO)
The machine is propelled by two-speed electric motor. The motor is fitted with a
stepped pulley and connected by one V-belt with the slide-on gearbox, which is keyed
by a hollow output shaft to the shaft of the bearing part of the dosing drum.
The machine output (rotor speed) is controlled by two-position switch. The motor runs
on 4 or 6 poles.
II. Electric Motor with a Speed Variator (COM-V)
The electric motor is fitted with speed variator gearbox. It is connected to the slipping
gearbox by V-belt, and the gearbox is keyed to the bearing part of the dozing drum
with an output hollow shaft. The output is changes by means of the speed variator.

Note: The drum should be selected with a view to the performance required.
The actual output of the machine depends on the kind and composition of the
mixture to be transported, its moisture content, transport distance, transport hoses
inner diameter, the compressed air pressure and quantity and the way of filling the
machine hopper.
Technical parameters
The transporting distance and height are directly affected by:
-The composition and water content of the conveyed mixture (with mixtures
consisting mostly of fine fractions should be tested individually,
-Sufficient amount of compressed air,
-Transport hoses or piping (for larger distances these must be straight with no
bends).
The compressed air must be always dry!
